Math 442 Assignments

General remarks

Homework should be legible and neat, and pages should be fastened
with
a staple or paperclip.

Homework will be collected on Thursdays in class and will
cover
the material
through Tuesday's lecture (roughly). You should start attempting the
problems as soon as possible after the material is presented in
lecture.
Please don't save it all for Wednesday night.

Solutions should be written carefully, using good English,
complete sentences,
and adequate detail. Some of these solutions may be proofs. A good
guideline
here is that you should write proofs the way you would like to see them
in your textbook.

Some of the problems have solutions in the back of the
book. If
you get
stuck on a problem, you might find it helpful to look at a nearby
unassigned
problem that has a solution.
